Pioneers of the River
AmaWaterways was founded by industry experts with a deep love for the rivers, including Rudi Schreiner, who once built and lived on a raft along the Amazon. That spirit of exploration still guides them today as they launch new ships and itineraries around the world. AmaWaterways remains family-run and focused solely on river cruising, launching custom-designed ships that honor the character of each river.
